I like your documentary style photography especially the black and white are striking.

I will upload images from this and a few new ones from this series, later on. It's actually interesting bit by bit to add toand remove/change images on this site. For me it's much better than trying to keep my own site updated [haven't been very good at that]
Best, M

I did a series called "Lines and Angles" that was very much inspired by his wonderful use of stripes and layers. You can view a few of those pieces under my "assemblage" album. Wondering what you think. I am very open to input.
Thanks!
Rosemary

Love and fond regards, my best to the boys.
